−	Recognising the growing need to avoid disrespect in an increasingly diverse workforce driven by cultural and religious beliefs, traditions and stigmatisation, Hoel explained how TC 260 began to identify issues (including external factors such as customers, clients and other stakeholders) and determine methods to deal with them. He explained how some organisations were unable to attract diverse talent (or were unable to retain such talent) due to the lack of D&I policies in place. The feeling was that many organisations would continue to miss out on diverse talent unless a recognised D&I standard would establish an authoritative course of action that was not optional.	+

= Introduction =

In May 2021, the International Standards Organisation (ISO) published [https://www.iso.org/standard/71164.html ISO 30415:2021 Human resource management - diversity and inclusion (D&I)]. Adopted in the UK in February 2021, ISO 30415 replaces [https://shop.bsigroup.com/products/valuing-people-through-diversity-and-inclusion-code-of-practice-for-organizations/ BS 76005:2017 Valuing people through diversity and inclusion. Code of practice for organizations], although both will be in use until May 2023.

The internationally developed standard, created by ISO Technical Committee 260 (ISO/TC 260), is meant to provide credible and consistent guidance on D&I at all levels within an organisation and to organisations of all types, sizes and locations. ISO 30415 is part of the ISO 30400 suite of Human Resource Management (HRM) standards developed by TC 206.

On 2 November 2021, BSI presented a webinar on ISO 30415:2021. The presentation was moderated by Helena Barrell, Standards Development Manager, BSI. The purpose of the webinar was to explain the drivers behind the development of the standard and highlight the details of the process.

The first speaker was Helge Hoel, professor emeritus, University of Manchester. He opened his presentation by providing some background on the standard, acknowledging numerous factors that prompted the ISO to examine what needed to be done and who needed to be included in the process.

Recognising the growing need to avoid disrespect in an increasingly diverse workforce driven by cultural and religious beliefs, traditions and stigmatisation, Hoel explained how TC 260 began to identify issues (including external factors such as customers, clients and other stakeholders) and determine methods to deal with them.

The feeling was that many organisations would continue to miss out on diverse talent unless a recognised D&I standard would establish an authoritative course of action that was not optional.

Shortly after the development process began in 2016, the need to adjust the process to address UN Sustainable Development Goals (set up in 2015) goals came to the committee’s attention. At this point, the decision was made by TC 206 to backtrack in order to incorporate several of these goals, including:

* Goal 5 - Gender equality. Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
* Goal 8 - Decent work and economic growth. Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all.
* Goal 10 - Reduced inequalities. Reduce inequality within and among countries.

The practical side of adopting ISO 30415 was addressed by Kevin Bowsher, HS, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Lead, Mace. He said that managers must set an example, and that organisations needed to make their attitudes towards D&I obvious in order to get everyone involved - and be truly diverse and representational. He also called attention to the benefits of adopting the standard, particularly in the way in which it generates trust.

Bowsher made it clear that trust and commitment allows people to feel empowered to challenge inappropriate behaviour in the workplace, but consistent support from management is essential. He acknowledged the importance of training and stated that organisations should always look to improve.
